Week 4, Thursday

Tonight was the last bootcamp team call. The plan for the call was to talk about what our plan is to continue what we started during these four weeks and continue to build our businesses.

For me, that means a respite for a day or two for a break and reorganization, then continue contacting people and following up, and following up, and following up.

Everyone had a plan in mind, but what we seemed to want to do most was appreciate the time we've spent together through this and all of the work everyone has been doing.

Congratulations were given out to all who stuck out the program, and thanks for jobs excellently done were also given to Jacki and Susan. In spite of Susan's efforts to deflect our praise of her, we couldn't have done this without her OR without Jacki to keep us on track and moving forward.

Perhaps the most valuable part of the whole bootcamp experience is connecting with others who have similar goals for support and encouragement and ideas for additional things to try and how to go about them. I'm definitely going to miss the structure of calls and blogs and reports, but I also know that I can set my own goals and schedules and monitor my results.

I am so thankful and grateful that I have been a part of this bootcamp and getting to know the other people in the program in a more personal way.

That's all for tonight. Make it a wonderful Friday for yourself and someone else, too.

May you rest well and wake with energy and enthusiasm for the day ahead.

Week 4, Tuesday

Since this it officially the last week of bootcamp, everyone is pushing to the end, and at the same time there is a feeling of nostalgia, too. I'm going to miss gathering for calls each week, and from the sound of things, so are most of the other bootcampers. Tonight's bootcamp call was full of appreciation for each other, and that's a good thing.

Jacki wasn't there, but Susan, as usual, did a great job. Without her attention to detail, I'm not sure how we'd get through all of this.

As for my MPM day, I made some contacts, did some follow-up with others, and also set appointment times for later in the week.

The really big news of the day is Tess and Big Z's new World Changer Mall Member.

CONGRATULATIONS, Tess and Big Z ! ! ! !

Make Wednesday a Wonderful Day!

Week 4, Monday

The last week of bootcamp has begun, and today was filled with contacts to make and follow ups to do.

We made calls and managed to connect with one real live person. We had a lovely chat, but at this time she is not ready to go farther with MPM. She says she likes what she saw in the presentation, but right now too much is going on for her to add anything else.

That's a feeling I certainly understand right now, and there's always later. In the meantime I can make casual mentions when I see her so the thread won't be completely broken.

This morning on the bootcamp call, I committed to begin approaching businesses today. I did visit one of the downtown stores, but the person I wanted to speak with wasn't there, so I'll have to try that again.

I'm not sure how positive the outcome was for the day, but I did get my five contacts, and get at least some follow-up done.

Make it a wonderful Tuesday.
